“I see… Then I’ll also vote for it to be placed in Firefly Town.” Lin Shurou said and clicked her choice.
Once she was done, she smiled again, brushed her hair behind her ear, and said to him, “Actually, I think it’s better to keep this thing away from us. I don’t want what happened to Wolf Town to happen to us here.”
Wolf Town is a small village in White Eagle Nation. Years ago, they found and erected an ancient monument there. Unfortunately, it attracted many bad organizations and unknown groups wishing to destroy the monument. They fought against the guards, and in just two months, they destroyed and left the town in ruins.
Ling Yi was aware of this fact from when he was doing his research earlier and nodded in agreement,
“I don’t know what kind of effects the Eternal Spirit Guardian Monument has. But judging from the name, it seems to be an enhanced version of the White Eagle Nation’s ancient monument.” Lin Shurou continued.
Shenxia officially revealed the monument’s name to the public, but the specific effects had yet to be announced.
However, the general public could guess its effects from its name mostly because everyone knew White Eagle Nation’s ancient monument when it was publicized years ago.
So far, there are only five ancient monuments in the entire world.
The White Eagle Nation had the Spirit Guardian Monument, Shenxia had the Strength Monument, and Bei Xiong had the Mana Monument. The remaining two monuments were rumored to be Agility Monuments, and their current location was unknown.
A Spirit Guardian Monument could give a person a chance to resurrect. The spirit protection lasted for one month and could simultaneously protect up to ten million people.
A Strength Monument can increase a person’s strength by 10 points and could be used on 10 million people at once.
And the other attribute-related monuments were similar.
…..
When the world discovered that Shenxia’s new tablet was called the “Eternal Spirit Guardian Monument”, they all thought it was the strengthened version of the White Eagle Nation’s “Spirit Guardian Monument”.
Currently, on the forum, the most popular topic of discussion is the speculation about the stone tablet’s effect.
[Speculations About The Effects Of The Eternal Spirit Guardian Monument!] (HOT)
The current number of people actively participating and reading the page was at the bottom left of the page, which wrote 1.266 billion.
Dozens or even hundreds of new posts were refreshed every second, which was a feast for the eyes.
Most of them were ranked by popularity. As a result, many people focused on the most popular posts and discussed them crazily.
[I think the effects lasted longer. We must go to the White Eagle’s monument every month to drip blood again. It’s so troublesome.]
[The number of people it affects should also increase, right? Maybe to 20 million?]
[Nah. I think it’s 100 million!]
[If it’s really 100 million people, doesn’t that mean that ordinary people like us have a chance to use it too?⊙▽⊙]
[If it really could protect 100 million people, it’ll be for us foreign players in Shenxia, not you ordinary people. Do you think it’ll be more beneficial to you than it is for us?]
[…]
Initially, today’s hottest topic was “Who is this 01?”.
However, since the monument would affect many lives, it still attracted more attention and discussion.
So the topic naturally shifted to it.
And when the official effects and countermeasures of the Eternal Spirit Guardian Monument were finally released. Like a moth to a flame, everybody immediately came to check.
[Effects of the Eternal Spirit Guardian Monument:… ] (Omitted)
After communicating with “01” who contributed to the monument, we have decided:
[1. All Shenxia citizens can use this monument to protect their souls.] (With the exceptions of Dark Players and Criminals)
[2. Temporarily not open for non-locals.]
…
The wind and the moon were clear tonight, and the stars twinkled in the sky.
Lin Qingyu was walking with her best friend on the football field at Qianjiang University.
The moonlight shone on her beautiful face while her best friend had her head lowered, allowing the shadow of her hair to cover her face.
The slender figure illuminated by the spotlight flickered back and forth as they walked.
“You players are like this. Once you enter God’s Path, you only care about becoming stronger and forget your original goals.”
“No, I didn’t! I didn’t forget!” Lin Qingyu immediately retorted.
“What did you say back then?”
“I said that if I became a player, I would definitely make a lot of money and donate it to the Divine Union’s Relief Society so that more victims could get food and shelter. I must become stronger and kill all the Dark Players in the world. I will bring peace to the world for you ordinary people!”
At this point, Lin Qingyu’s face turned slightly red at her own somewhat cringey words. She even took a quick glance around the premises to check whether anyone was listening to their conversation.
She sighed in relief when the closest people to them were too far away to listen to her.
Exhaling quietly, she said in a low voice, “But, it’s just a whimsical goal of an ordinary little player like me anyway. It’s impossible to do it…”
Everyone had dreams. It didn’t matter whether they could achieve them or not, but everyone always had one in their hearts.
In her opinion, her childish dream was as hard as getting the highest score in a high school entrance exam.
She didn’t even need to think further into it.
It was impossible.
“Aish, it’s good that you remember your “childish” goal. I don’t want you to be like the others, you know? Everybody left dreaming of being a hero, only to return and become the evil dragon instead.” Her best friend sighed. “If you only pursue strength, you’ll become cold-blooded and heartless in the end.”
“There are too many examples like this…”
The two continued to walk around, their light footsteps on the rubber track almost inaudible.
Just as the two of them fell silent, someone nearby suddenly exclaimed, “F*ck! The Eternal Spirit Guardian Monument’s effect is activated!”
“There’s no limit to the number of people!! ”
Immediately after, the entire sports field was filled with screams. There were many people at the outdoor sports field of Qianjiang University every night.
But tonight, it felt even more apparent how many people they were.
“The monument’s effect is out! The announcement said that we can all go and be protected by the spirit!”
“F*ck! Really? Is there really such an awesome monument?”
“I don’t know, but it’s clearly written on the announcement!”
“I didn’t expect legendary national welfare to really exist! Never would I imagine that God’s Path holds such a thing!”
“Good, good…”
Hearing the people around them yelling and cheering, Lin Qingyu and her best friend looked at each other and immediately ran to the haystack at the side and sat down. One opened the forum through the player interface, while the other quickly checked the forum through her phone.
“Heavens…”
Lin Qingyu covered her mouth with her hand in shock, “There’s actually an incredible item in God’s Path? There’s no limit to the number of people? It would add protection to the lives of our people!”
“This is better than any insurance! It’s truly a national benefit!”
“That’s great!”
Her best friend, who was in the shadows, raised her head slightly. Under the moonlight, she revealed a slightly open red mouth. Her lips were soft, full, and tender, contrasting with her snow-white chin.
Obviously, she was also shocked.
“Contributor… 01?”
Hearing her best friend mention this contributor, Lin Qingyu was stunned for a moment, and then she laughed, “What a coincidence, I have a friend with the same forum name.”
“Oh?”
“But he’s a newbie, so they’re definitely not the same guy.”
“Hmm…”
“I didn’t expect God’s Path to have an item that could benefit everyone … Since that’s the case, my future goal will be finding items that could benefit the entire nation!”
Lin Qingyu clenched her fist and said excitedly, “I couldn’t fulfill my goals with my strength, but with these kinds of items, I still have hope for the future.”
She raised her head to look at the starry sky, and her pure pink eyes brightened.
